I like Fatburger's, but where else? Hollywood, east side, SGV and downtown particularly...?

Their fries are mediocre, their onion rings an abomination but their turkey burgers are very nice -- big, juicy, dripping with melted cheddar and freshly grilled onions, and always hot off the grill. (And, if you wash it down with a milk shake, you can cancel out what whatever health benefit you might otherwise have obtained from having turkey instead of beef.) Fri Aug 05 17:05:32 -0700 2005 394480 0 David Kahn 1 394496 This may sound counter-intuitive but the turkey burger at M and M's Soul Food (the Crenshaw/MLK store) has a great turkey burger and it's quite a deal. Fri Aug 05 17:41:53 -0700 2005 394480 0 corydon 1 394497 it may sound weird, but I've always enjoyed the turkey burgers at Norms...they're simple, but there's something in them that's different (tastes like cumin to me) Fri Aug 05 17:44:33 -0700 2005 394480 0 Paul K 1 394500 Eat Well (West Ho, Silverlake & Glendale) has an excellent turk burger comes on a really good whole wheat bun. Instead of lettuce, it comes with sprouts which I get them to exchange for lettuce. If you really want to go healthy, you have an option of a fruit cup or you can get the standard, fries -- I order "well done" & their extra crispy. Yum! Fri Aug 05 17:54:27 -0700 2005 394480 0 Silverlaker 1 394504 There are two excellent turkey burgers that I can recommend: The Rosemary TB at The Mustard Seed on Hillhurst in Los Feliz is really great - it is seasoned very well and has your standard tomato/lettuce/onion on a nice bun. Comes with a very nice salad or surprisingly good potato salad. Ammo on Highland at Santa Monica Blvd. in Hollywood also has a very good one with sharp cheddar, tomato, arugula and caramelized onions, and served with some of the best fries I've had. Hope that helps! Fri Aug 05 18:07:51 -0700 2005 394480 0 smogqueen 2 394509 I've had both. I don't usually like the flavor of rosemary too much, but I agree that it works really well in the Mustard Seed turkey burger. In contrast, while I generally like the food at Ammo, every time I've ordered their turkey burger, it has tasted burnt.

My favortie is The Gardens at Glendon in Westwood (comes on a grainy bread with fries and fruit salad). I can also be found eating them at Fatburger, The Arsenal on Pico, Big Tomy's (not Tommy's) on Sawtelle and Pico, and Foodies on Wilshire. Those are all passable. Fri Aug 05 19:31:12 -0700 2005 394480 0 duckduckgoose 1 394540 not on the east side, but hal's on abbot kinney in venice has a great turkey burger. Fri Aug 05 20:44:24 -0700 2005 394480 0 SH 1 394556 I love the ones at Good Stuff, but you have to come over to the westside to get them.
